Trial Outcomes & Findings for Trial to Evaluate the Safety and Efficacy of TP-03 for the Treatment of Demodex Blepharitis (NCT NCT04784091)

NCT ID: NCT04784091

Last Updated: 2023-12-21

Results Overview

The proportion of subjects cured where cure is defined as 0-2 lashes with collarettes on the upper eyelid of the analysis eye. The primary outcome analysis is the combined result from 20 analyses each with missing data imputed. Missing data were imputed per the method described in the SAP. The least square mean is computed from the result of the 20 analyses with imputed missing values

The primary outcome analysis is the combined result from 20 analyses each with missing data imputed. Missing data were imputed per the method described in the SAP. The least square mean is computed from the result of the 20 analyses with imputed missing values

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: 43 days

The proportion of participants with Demodex mites eradicated at Day 43 where eradication is defined as a mite density of 0 mites/lash for the analysis eye. The mite density is obtained by epilating four of more lashes and dividing the number of mites observed under the microscope by the number of lashes. The primary outcome analysis is the combined result from 20 analyses each with missing data imputed. Missing data were imputed per the method described in the SAP. The least square mean is computed from the result of the 20 analyses with imputed missing values

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: 43 days

The proportion of participants cured where cure is defined as a composite of the collarettes, 0-2 lashes with collarettes on the upper eyelid of the analysis eye, and normal lid margin erythema for the upper eyelid of the analysis eye at Day 43. The primary outcome analysis is the combined result from 20 analyses each with missing data imputed. Missing data were imputed per the method described in the SAP. The least square mean is computed from the result of the 20 analyses with imputed missing values.
